I suppose you still can't quote a single essential
MSDOS syscall or concept that can't possibly be ported
beyond MSDOS?

I haven't found one in 35 years either, so I'm not
surprised.

Names of people don't impress me. An INT 21H call
that I could look up and that can't possibly be
avoided would impress me.

I doubt that it exists, but if you give me the
number, I'll look up RBIL and see this amazing
concept that only exists in MSDOS.

BFN. Paul.
